Chapter 164: Once Famous and Known to the World (II)
A total of 135 students were admitted to the Beizhili Township Examination. Pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info and with the approach of the time of the deer feast, the new imperial examination people continue to arrive. In front of Minglun Hall, the circle around Jia Huan is getting bigger and bigger.
What does it mean to be a ten-year-old lifter, how can those of them who are in the field not know?
Even if Jia Huan was postponed for three years, he was only thirteen or fourteen years old when he entered the officialdom. Entering the officialdom at this age, as long as nothing happens, it will be easy to be a six-part squire and a scholar in the future.
And if Jia Huan's test score is good enough and he enters the Hanlin Academy, he is definitely expected to be among the top recruits, and he will stay up until a university scholar comes out. In the same year with such a future, it is natural to make friends now.
Ji Ming, who came to Minglun Hall a little later, looked at Jia Huan, who was highly sought after in the crowd and talked and laughed, his eyes flashed with envy and some pride. He was also a member of Wendao Academy, and he was his own person.
…
Not far away, looking at the crowd gathered around Jia Huan, talking and laughing, Zhao Xingchen, the son of the Marquis of Ruyang, snorted coldly, "The rules of the national dynasty and the former Ming Dynasty are different!" At this time, he was gathering with his friends to talk around Yayuan Shifu. There are about 20 people gathered around.
The first place in the township test is called Xie Yuan, the second is called Yayuan, and the third to fifth places are Wujing Kui. Xie Yuan and Ya Yuan are of course also Jing Kui. The sixth is called Aqui.
Yayuan Shifu is eighteen years old this year, with a handsome appearance, a slightly arrogant expression, and a sarcastic smile. I felt a little uncomfortable.
…
Shangguan Chang, who had greeted Gongsun Liang and others before the results were released yesterday, was chatting with Xu Xuan, who was already 36 years old in Zhili Township, North Branch, and others. Here, it's much more deserted.
Shangguan Chang was recognized as having the strength of the Five Classics before the exam. This time, he took the 24th place in the Beizhili Township Examination.
A scholar glanced at Jia Huan and Shi Fu, and said with a smile: "At the age of twenty, it is commendable to look at the world. Jia was on the laurel list at the age of ten in the same year. It seems that as Qi Zongxian said: the day of becoming famous in the world is not far away. ”
Shangguan Chang quipped: "Jia is in the limelight in the same year, I'm afraid that a certain Yayuan will be dissatisfied." I waited for the same year as the current department, and my strength was the most powerful to Brother Xu. The potential is the most in Jia Ziyu. And Shi Tongyi has the most potential to be realized. ”
That's what I said! The crowd laughed.
Although Jia Ziyu of Wendao Academy has great potential, his ranking is too low, which inevitably makes some people say that they doubt the strength of his articles. And Yayuan Shifu is eighteen years old, and Yayuan is the second place in the township test high school. Perhaps, next year's spring boudoir competition will be able to get the middle jinshi, so it is called: the most potential to be cashed.
It's a joke.
Thirty-seven-year-old Xu Xuan smiled. He is an old-fashioned and serious character, and he is unwilling to show what he thinks.
It stands to reason that the township test should be the object of congratulations and the focus of all those who gather in the same year. A high-spirited, leader-oriented figure. But he's very deserted here. Because according to normal logic: at his age, the fastest time he gets into the Jinshi is thirty-seven or eighteen years old, and it is difficult to make a difference when he enters the official career.
However, the north and south are directly subordinate to the imperial examination, and Xie Yuan is full of gold. As the northern direct subordinate Xie Yuan, the world is paying attention. He has the confidence to enter the Sanding League in the spring of next year.
However, there are so many gods (demons) and children (sins) in his department!
Xu Xuan looked at the thin young man who was talking and laughing in the middle of the crowd on the right.
…
Jia Huan, who was surrounded by the praise and praise of the same year, had no time to think: he had robbed the most powerful Xie Yuan and Yayuan in the same year's Xiang Xiang test at the moment.
Of course, even if he had time, Jia Huan would not think about such a boring thing. There is no need to be afraid to be a man! How is it possible for one person to make all people recognize you? The most important thing is to be yourself.
A group of people talked and laughed in front of Minglun Hall. After the time of the deer feast, the salute came out. Everyone entered the Minglun Hall in turn.
Subsequently, the examiners of the township examination came out of the back hall. The president officer, the township test promotion officer, the township test internal and external supervision officer, the Beijing Seven Grades of Imperial History, the patrol press of the imperial history, and the four officials of the outer curtain: volume official, seal official, transcription officer, and reading officer; Examiners such as prison officers, inspectors, and superintendents are not left behind.
There are: President Guanwang, the new Shuntianfu Governor Yin Sunjia, Beizhili Deputy Envoy Sha Sheng, Inspector Yu Wenrui, Wanping County Commander Zhao Junbo and others.
Shaoqing, in the elegant music, the Yongzhi ten years of Beizhili Township test deer banquet began. The new imperial examination people sang the poem "Deer Song", danced the Kui Xing Dance, and then greeted the chief examiner, the world-famous writer, and set the relationship between teachers and students.
Then, the poems of the Five Classics were written to express the joy of their own lifting. This is the unique honor of the five classics among the 135 lifters. After the Five Classics Kui Fu poems, drink a few more glasses of wine, and the Luming feast will be over.
Jia Huan sat in the wine table in the hall, greeting each other and drinking with everyone around him in the same year. The Luming Banquet is an official wine banquet, not a place to drink freely. Neither can food and drink. But even so, the atmosphere at the banquet was excellent and slightly smoky.
When Xing Zheng, the fifth place and the son of Tang County, Baoding Prefecture, finished reciting his poems, Fang Wang, the president of the township test who was sitting at the top of Minglun Hall, asked his colleagues around him with a smile, "What do you think?" ”
Looking at the full seat of young scholars, many of whom were teenagers, he was a little proud. This is the result of his determination to break away from age as one of the admission criteria.
Yin Sunjia of the Shuntian Mansion said with a smile: "Mr. Wangxi, but there is a sigh of prodigies in the world? ”
Fang Wangshu laughed and said: "When I heard the name of Jia Qingsong in the capital in Jinling, I once said that the imperial examination should be based on talent and literature, and should not be based on age. As he spoke, he raised his voice and asked, "Where is Wanping Jia Huan?" ”
The noisy Minglun Hall gradually quieted down.
Jia Huan got up and left his seat, stepped forward to the middle of the hall, and saluted the teacher, "The student has seen the teacher." "When he presented the gold, silver and silk just now, he had already talked about the relationship between the master and the protégé with the Heavenly Sect Fang Wang.
Fang Wang, who was in his fifties, with a thin appearance and a blue robe, looked at the calm and steady young man in the hall, nodded approvingly, and said, "Sha Shuzhi praises you: a British-funded young man, a young phoenix with a clear voice." Qi Bogui praised your talent and said that the day when you would become famous in the world was not far off. At the age of ten, he was the first person since the dynasty. Once famous, the world knows! However, young people should not be reserved and arrogant, but must be down-to-earth and strive to make progress. Don't make mistakes. ”
Jia Huan was taken out separately to give a lecture to the president, which is extremely important for his performance. Otherwise, who is impatient to talk to you in detail? Everyone who looked at Jia Huan's figure in the same year was extremely envious. The world's attention to Beizhili Xie Yuan does not have this treatment!
Jia Huan replied, "Yes, teacher." ”
At this time, Sha Sheng, the deputy envoy of Beizhili Tixue, who was sitting on Fang Wang's left hand side, threw away the wine glass in his hand and sighed, "Alas. I hate not being able to be the teacher of this son. Mr. Wangxi, retire first. With that, he left Minglun Hall gloomily.
According to the convention, the Grand Master Sha Sheng is the teacher who can become Jia Huan. However, Jia Huan did not participate in last year's college exam. Even if he wanted Zhu Yi to nod his forehead, he couldn't start. This made him feel sorry in his heart.
Jia Huan sighed a little in his heart. He could tell that this friend of the mountain chief really admired him. It's just that last year he fell ill and couldn't take the college exam hosted by Shatixue. Otherwise, he can be regarded as Sha Sheng's protégé in terms of officialdom ethics.
The people below were amazed! Jia Ziyu is really going to be famous now. He was raised at the age of ten, which was originally a big event and an interesting anecdote. But it is impossible for a man in Vaselyn not to speak of him. And Shatixue's sigh of "I can't wait to be the teacher of this son", I am afraid that it will make him a little more legendary.
It is estimated that the notes of the people of the time should be written like this: In the autumn of the year of Renzi, Beizhili Township tried the deer ming banquet, and the official Feng Jiu, the president at the time, summoned the ring to the hall, warmly praised and admonished him. Tixue Sha Sheng sighed with emotion: I can't hate to be the teacher of this son. Surprised. Few, the world is famous.
Fang Wang smiled and took the opportunity to announce the end of the Luming feast.
…
After the Luming Banquet, the official procedures of the township test are all over. The following is the personal time of the candidates.
In the afternoon of the same day, the official residence of the chief examiner was full of people, and the new imperial examination people came to visit the teacher in their private capacity. Jia Huan, Luo Xiangyang, and Gongsun Liang are no exception. Jia Huan was very favored by President Fang Wang, and said three or five more sentences.
Subsequently, the three of them each went to visit their respective house masters. Under the same master of the house, it is called the same door. It's a layer more intimate than the relationship of the same year on the same list.
By the time I returned to the February Inn in the east of the inner city in the evening, there were already more than 20 posts inviting Jia Huan, Gongsun Liang, and Luo Xiangyang to the banquet. Seeing the three of them coming back, the shopkeeper came to ask diligently: "What do the three masters want to eat for dinner?" ”
If you win the lift, you are the master.
Jia Huan smiled and sent the guys in the store away. The three of them are not going to eat anything now, but to ask where to eat?
After visiting the seat master and the house master, all that remains is the carnival and celebration after the middle lift. The whole month of September will be a month of revelry. Invite each other to feast, and have fun with fellow villagers who live in Beijing. Numerous.
At this time, a scene at the deer banquet had spread. It is like a wave, through letters, oral messages, and rumors, to the four eight directions of the capital, to the north of Zhili, and to the thirteen political envoys in the world. Where this wave passes, Jia Huan leaves his name!
Ten years of cold windows no one asked, and in one fell swoop became famous all over the world.
…
The silver moon is like a hook, and the sycamore is clear in autumn. On the night of September 9, there was a burst of joy in Wendao Academy. The news of Jia Huan, Gongsun Liang, and Luo Xiangyang has been transmitted back to Wendao Academy.
Ye Hongyun, Wu Jiaolang, He Jingye, Lecturer Fang, Lecturer Luo and others celebrated with wine. Celebrate for Jia Huan and rejoice for the academy. These three people are the core and elite of the academy.
Especially Jia Huan, a ten-year-old lifter! The first part of the dynasty must be a name in history. He was two years earlier than Yang Tinghe, the first assistant of the former Ming Dynasty, the elder of the Three Dynasties, and Yang Tinghe, who decided the choice of the emperor. The future is limitless.
Among the classmates, Du Hong, Yao Wei, Liu Yichen, Zhang Sishui, Qin Hongtu, Yi Junjie, Ji Cheng and others gathered in the Scholar Restaurant to set up wine and celebrate the head of Jiayuan, Senior Brother, and Luo Junzi.
In the courtyard of No. 49 Beiqianfang, Dongzhuang Town, Qingwen and Ruyi were happily packing up their clothes, laughing from time to time. The third master is raised! The third master sent Hu Xiaosi to inform them, asking them to find Xianheng Commercial Bank to hire a carriage to return to Jiafu tomorrow.
Qingwen looked at the furnishings in the bedroom and suddenly felt a little sad. I've lived here for more than half a year. I don't know if I'll be back in the future.
…
Hu Xiaosi took a carriage out of the city in the morning to Dongzhuang Town to inform the third master's maid Qingwen and Ruyi, and when he returned to the capital, it was already evening, replacing Qian Huai and following the third master to the Tongfu Restaurant at the entrance of the lamp market.
Qian Huai returned to Jiafu and replied to the second housekeeper Lin Zhixiao. When I returned to Jiafu, I saw Lin Zhixiao in the treasury of the house, and said with a smile: "Steward Lin, the third master said: There is no hurry to return to the house." ”
Lin Zhixiao has always been a silent person, and at this time he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, sighing: "My third master! Is this 'not in a hurry'? "Although the old lady and the old man didn't say it explicitly, how could he not know the thoughts of the master above? His Hun family is the official family in the house. Now, everyone in the house is waiting for the third master to return home.
This is the top priority of Jia Province at the moment.
"Qian Huai, you kid will go and tell the third master again." Lin Zhixiao and Yan Yue sent the little servant Qian Huai away, thought about it, and went to tell Jia Lian, who was in charge of foreign affairs in Jiafu, something to say. (To be continued.) )
